“I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the   sense of what it is to be a human being.”
Oscar Wilde

From humble beginnings in 1977, Epicentre Theatre Company has survived the test of time and provided Sydney’s theatre junkies with over 40 years of splendid theatre.

We at the ETC believe the aim of theatre is multifaceted. On one level it is an escape from one’s day to day life. It gives us a chance to travel on someone else’s road through laughter and pain. On a deeper level it is to engage with the journey of a character and cathartically let our own emotions rise to the surface. On a simpler level, it is a wonderful way to meet people, sharing a glass of wine in the foyer as you discuss the merits of what you have just witnessed.

With this in mind, Epicentre Theatre Company believes theatre is a forum to bring together a cross-section of society in the commonality of engaging with thought-provoking and entertaining theatre. The company strives to produce the highest quality of live theatre, focussing their three productions each year in three distinct areas:

1. To uncover exciting new Australian playwrights and producing a premier production each year.
2. Engaging with both an educated younger audience and the general public by producing one play each year which is studied at a Year 12 secondary school level in schools
3. Produce cutting edge interpretations of classic or contemporary works of theatre from Australia and overseas.

Whatever your reason for spending a night at our theatre, we trust you’ll find the thrill and magic that only comes when playing your role in the theatre experience.
